Our mothers' country hearts
Join us for an evening of soulful and joyful country; Americana and original music delivered through story and song.
Musicians Andrea Duff (keys and vocals) and Karl Zander (guitar, resonator, banjitar, ukelele and vocals) present a musical anthology straight from the hearts of mothers and fathers as they reflect on their own musical influences.
The duo revisits the swirling dance music of the Wonderland ballroom in post-war Adelaide; a mother's vintage sheet-music collection; an absent father's love of rockabilly in Mozambique; the universal trials of the 60s housewife and the meaning of home.
Join us for a captivating evening in the creative and atmospheric community favourite - Cafe Komodo.
"We were transported through the heart of country music in a performance that was fun and engaging...highly recommended!"

Presented by: The Southern Byways
The Southern Byways is a talented, country music-loving duo comprising Karl Zander and Andrea Duff.
Karl is well-regarded by audiences for his rich baritone (think Johnny Cash) and has been playing music for almost 30 years. He teaches guitar, ukulele and bass, as well as coordinating music programs through the WEA and with diverse community groups. Andrea has co-written, produced and performed in two sell-out Fringe Shows: A restaurant like Alice and A smoke, a pill and the six o'clock swill. Andrea sings soprano with Cantabile Singers; studies piano and has played widely across the musical genres.
Country music, Americana and story-telling hold a special place for the Southern Byways. They play throughout metropolitan and regional South Australia and are regulars at Cafe Komodo in Prospect.
